Veteran actor Rajpal Yadav emerged from Tihar Jail a free man temporarily, courtesy of Delhi High Court’s compassionate interim order in a high-profile check bounce dispute. The 30-year Bollywood stalwart, known for his comic timing, spoke candidly to reporters about his ordeal and gratitude.
‘From 2012-13, this chapter unfolded, yet public support fueled my 250-film milestone by 2026. Every Indian cinema lover is dear to me,’ he stated. Complying fully with court mandates, Yadav deposited Rs 1.5 crore, leading to Justice Swarna Kanta Sharma suspending his sentence till March 18.
The judge’s directive was clear: mandatory court presence, no disruptions. This came after Yadav’s surrender on February 4 as ordered earlier. His appreciation for the court’s listening ear resonated, signaling respect for judicial authority.
Yadav’s story is a reminder of how financial missteps can ensnare even stars. With the industry rallying behind him, all eyes are on the upcoming hearing that promises further clarity.
